80% of medical resources in China are concentrated in 20% of big cities, and the population is concentrated in big hospitals, which leads to long waiting time for medical treatment and shortage of hospital beds. Perfecting the community medical network, allowing ordinary people to enter the community with minor illness and the hospital with serious illness is one of the main means to solve the problem of difficult and expensive medical treatment in China. It is a reasonable way to allocate medical resources when a serious illness enters the hospital and a minor illness enters the community. Community medical institutions will become the main body of community health services such as preventive health care, basic medical care, health education and disease control.

The Analysis Report on Market Prospect and Investment Strategic Planning of China Community Medical Industry shows that the community medical service in China is still in its infancy. In 2009, the national community health service centers and service stations only accounted for 2.98% of the total number of health institutions, and their health technicians only accounted for 4.52% of the total number of health technicians. There is still much room for improvement in the human resources of community medical institutions.

There is still a big gap between community medical institutions and large hospitals in terms of objective conditions such as facilities and diagnosis and treatment level. Some community medical institutions lack hardware, outdated equipment and even poor external environment, which affects residents' confidence in seeing a doctor. Many community medical institutions have single business and low technical level, and generally lack general practitioners and senior talents.

However, the role of community medical institutions and the current development status of community medical institutions in China make China have to pay attention to the role of community medical care, especially the new medical reform policy puts community medical care in the first place, and the support for community medical construction is gradually improved. The development of community health service institutions, whether it is the exploration of the first diagnosis system or the referral system, must be backed by high-quality medical services. The urgent task is to improve the service level of community health service institutions, vigorously publicize the purpose and content of community health service, let community residents feel the benefits of community health service and continuous service, and gradually change their concepts through policy guidance.
